²⁵ Young I have been, I have also become old, And I have not seen the righteous forsaken, And his seed seeking bread.

⁵ Without covetousness the behaviour, being content with the things present, for He hath said, `No, I will not leave, no, nor forsake thee,'

¹³ His soul in good doth remain, And his seed doth possess the land.

²² for Jehovah doth not leave His people, on account of His great name; for Jehovah hath been pleased to make you to Him for a people.

⁵ and ye have forgotten the exhortation that doth speak fully with you as with sons, `My son, be not despising chastening of the Lord, nor be faint, being reproved by Him,

⁶ for whom the Lord doth love He doth chasten, and He scourgeth every son whom He receiveth;'

²⁸ For Jehovah is loving judgment, And He doth not forsake His saintly ones, To the age they have been kept, And the seed of the wicked is cut off.

² Mighty in the earth is his seed, The generation of the upright is blessed.

⁹ persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed;

²² A good man causeth sons' sons to inherit, And laid up for the righteous `is' the sinner's wealth.

¹⁸ And also unto old age and grey hairs, O God, forsake me not, Till I declare Thy strength to a generation, To every one that cometh Thy might.

⁸ Wherefore, having in Christ much boldness to command thee that which is fit --

⁹ because of the love I rather entreat, being such an one as Paul the aged, and now also a prisoner of Jesus Christ;

¹⁶ and there went also of the disciples from Cesarea with us, bringing with them him with whom we may lodge, a certain Mnason of Cyprus, an aged disciple.

⁵³ The hungry He did fill with good, And the rich He sent away empty,

⁵⁴ He received again Israel His servant, To remember kindness,

⁵⁵ As He spake unto our fathers, To Abraham and to his seed -- to the age.'

¹⁴ For Jehovah leaveth not His people, And His inheritance forsaketh not.

⁹ Cast me not off at the time of old age, According to the consumption of my power forsake me not.

¹⁵ They -- they wander for food, If they are not satisfied -- then they murmur.

⁶ And Elihu son of Barachel the Buzite answereth and saith: -- Young I `am' in days, and ye `are' age Therefore I have feared, And am afraid of shewing you my opinion.

⁷ I said: Days do speak, And multitude of years teach wisdom.

²³ He is wandering for bread -- `Where `is' it?' He hath known that ready at his hand Is a day of darkness.

⁵ `No man doth station himself before thee all days of thy life; as I have been with Moses, I am with thee, I do not fail thee, nor forsake thee;

⁷ `And I have established My covenant between Me and thee, and thy seed after thee, to their generations, for a covenant age-during, to become God to thee, and to thy seed after thee;

¹⁰ And wander continually do his sons, Yea, they have begged, And have sought out of their dry places.

¹⁶ And their sucklings are dashed to pieces before their eyes, Spoiled are their houses, and their wives lain with.
